I've been spending the last few months really diving into all of the valuable information available not only on the BP site, but also through podcasts and books and I have really caught the real estate bug!

Your monthly payment is now much cheaper at $.50 and you will put a renter in the house who is paying you $.80 - so you will make $.30 a month in cash flow, which your girlfriend will demand you spend on her.

You might want to spend the extra money to get an atty. to draft the note and mortgage to ensure it's done right. 

I generally know what I want to spend before I have the contractor out.  

I am planning to rent this house, and want to get any ideas/suggestion from experts here.Kitchens - We re-did our entire Kitchen (new Cabinets, Flooring, Plumbing, etc. ) I want to know, Is it worth spending the money for Granite Counter Tops vs.

Create a budget, how much do you have to spend on marketing?

I spend maybe an hour a week on it; I find once you have it set up a natural repeatable process emerges.

You get $30k from some random unacceptable source (friend who isn't family gifts it, drug money, Al Qaeda, sold a car or painting but didn't do any paperwork, you just walk into your bank with $30k cash and deposit it, it makes zero difference in the world, unacceptable is unacceptable).Your balance is $80k.You spend that $30k, doesn't matter on what.

Hey all,So I’m tossing around the idea of buying a STR with the intention of my family getting use out of it.Currently I live in South Jersey and my family travels to Florida a few times a year, In the summer we spend a lot of weekends in Ventnor, NJ and we love the Poconos.

I am a new investor and I will be traveling for work down in Austin, TX but I want to also spend some time on my off days to look at some properties when I am down there.
